Install fedora14 on MacBook Pro

Let's talk about the problems with installing Linux on macbooks.

1. GPT partition. Most Linux instances are supported.

2. EFI boot. Fedora supports EFI and gurb2. However, install refit for convenience.

3. hardware drivers: video card, sound card, and wireless NIC Driver.

The installation process is as follows:

1. the disk util of the Mac is used for partitioning, and then the installation is started with a CD. The basic image or text format is used. Otherwise, the white screen will appear. In addition, you need to install the applicationProgramTo the boot disk.

2. Install the driver directly from the official website. You must install the driver on a non-graphic interface.

3 Broadcom bcm4322 wireless network card needs to manually compile and replace the original SSB and b34.

4. The sound card driver needs to be downloaded and compiled on the RealTek official website. However, due to kernel version problems, there is a redefined function, which can be commented out directly.
